My goal today!!
1. How you are going to approach your preparation?
2. Why are core skills important?
3. How to evaluate whether you are learning/improving
(consequence)?

No tricks on GMAT they just dont work

Strategy: What does it mean and why do we need one

Strategy: A plan of action designed to achieve a
particular goal.
Good Strategy: Provides maximum benefit with
the least input by capitalizing on strengths and
overcoming the weakness
Hallmarks of Good strategy:
1. Define a goal.
2. Analyze the situation and your current
strengths
3. Have good assumptions.
4. Plan and execute.

Jacob is now 12 years younger than Michael. If 9 years from now Michael will be twice as
old as Jacob, how old will Jacob be in 4 years?
A) 3
B) 7
C)15
D)21
E)25

How did you solve this question?

By making equations
Using number substitution
Using formula

Your brain is already wired to solve this

question. You do not need to consciously
apply a formula or a shortcut to solve it.

For Verbal, we need to create these

connections. Following the e-GMAT
process helps us do that.

Jacob and Michel

Jacob is now 12 years younger than Michael. If 9
years from now Michael will be twice as old as
Jacob, how old will Jacob be in 4 years?
A) 3
B) 7
C)15
D)21
E)25

J = Jacob

M = Michael

Today:
J+12 = M

Core Skills
1. Work with algebraic
variables.
2. Convert statements into
equations
3. Relate multiple equations
4. Solve equations
Which of these core skills do
you need to learn?
What about natives,
particularly Americans?

9 years from Now

2*(J + 9) = M+9
2J+9 = M
Solving:
J+12 = 2J+9
J = 3 today and 7 => 4 years from
now.

There are some core skills that

you need to master to do well
in a section

What do third graders learn Reading Comprehension

CR Bold Face Question. (semi difficult)

Stock prices of companies that exceed $100B in revenue, also called Extremely Large Caps (ELC)
rarely beat the market over a 5 year period. It is commonly thought that this happens because
these companies are too big to grow faster than the overall market. However, studies show that
ELCs that provide higher returns than the market over a 5 year period, a majority of them are
run by their founders. Since most of the ELCs are run by professional management that is
inherently risk averse; the studies finding strongly suggests that the real reason why most ELCs
dont beat the market is not that they are too big to grow but rather that they are run by
professional management that is too risk averse.

What role do the two boldfaced selections play in the above argument?
A. The first is a claim, the accuracy of which is at issue in the argument; the second is a
conclusion drawn on the basis of that claim.
B. The first is an objection that has been raised against a position defended in the argument; the
second is that position.
C. The first is evidence that has been used to support an explanation that the argument favors;
the second is that explanation.
D. The first is evidence that has been used to support an explanation that the argument
challenges; the second is a competing explanation that the argument favors.
E. The first provides evidence to refute an explanation that the argument favors; the second is
that explanation.

How to approach Bold Face Questions

Read the argument
1. Read and Classify every statement
2. Understand how it relates to the preceding statement
Completed Reading
1. Understand how the Bolded statements relate to the
conclusion.
2. Prethink your answer (BF1 is X, and supports/refutes
the conclusion)
Evaluate answer choices
Evaluate each element of every answer choice and see if
its correct. (Note, it may differ from your prethinking)

Analysis

than the overall market

However, studies show that ELCs that provide

not that they are too big to grow but rather that

Fact, Observation, Principle ??

Author is listing a general

belief.
Author listing an exception
BF a characteristic of that
exception.
Another fact that author
brings to life ..
Authors conclusion.. The
second B.F is authors
explanation of why ELC dont
grow. It also refutes the
accepted belief

BF1: A characteristic of companies that buck the trend, fact provided to

support authors conclusion
BF2: The reason for the observed trend. Also the alternate explanation that
the author favors for the observation regarding ELC

Answer Choice Analysis

The first is a claim, the accuracy of which is at
issue in the argument; the second is a conclusion
drawn on the basis of that claim

The first it a fact, its accuracy

is not in doubt. The second is
not a conclusion

The first is an objection that has been raised

against a position defended in the argument; the
second is that position..

The first is not an objection

against the position defended

The first is evidence that has been used to support

an explanation that the argument favors; the
second is that explanation.
The first is evidence that has been used to support
an explanation that the argument challenges; the
second is a competing explanation that the
argument favors.
The first provides evidence to refute an
explanation that the argument favors; the second
is that explanation.

This is the correct choice. First

supports the explanation that
argument favors. The second is
that explanation.
The first does not support the
explanation that argument
challenges. Second is correct

First supports the explanation

that the argument favors.

Bold Face Core Skills

1. What is this statement? (Ability to
classify the statement)
2. How does it relate to the
conclusion/main point of the
argument?
3. How does it relate to the
other bold face statement
4. Evaluate the answer choices

Is this a fact, belief, observation, principle,

conclusion, prediction, main point, etc.
Support or refute the main point.

Support, refute or no relation

Compare and Select

To do well .. You really need to understand the Passage structure

RDS Technology GMATPREP problem

Radio stations with radio data system (RDS) technology broadcast special program
information that only radios with an RDS feature can receive. Between 1994 and
1996, the number of RDS radio stations in Verdland increased from 250 to 600.
However, since the number of RDS-equipped radios in Verdland was about the same
in 1996 as in 1994, the number of Verdlanders receiving the special program
information probably did not increase significantly.
Which of the following is an assumption on which the argument depends?
A. Few if any of the RDS radio stations that began broadcasting in Verdland after
1994 broadcast to people with RDS-equipped radios living in areas not previously
reached by RDS stations.
B. In 1996 most Verdlanders who lived within the listening area of an RDS station
already had a radio equipped to receive RDS.
C. Equipping a radio station with RDS technology does not decrease the station's
listening area.
D. In 1996 Verdlanders who did not own radios equipped to receive RDS could not
receive any programming from the RDS radio stations that began broadcasting in
Verdland after 1994.
E. The RDS radio stations in Verdland in 1996 did not all offer the same type of
programming.

How to approach Assumption Questions

Read the argument
1. Read and Classify every statement
2. Understand how it relates to the preceding statement
Completed Reading
1. Prethink your answer (Logical gap, falsify the
conclusion)
Evaluate answer choices
Evaluate every answer choice to see if its the correct
assumption. (Note, it may differ from your prethinking)
1. What does the choice talks about.
2. Does it satisfy the litmus test. (new info, support, Must
be true)

Q6: Answer Choice Analysis

Radio stations with radio data system (RDS) technology broadcast special program
information that only radios with an RDS feature can receive. Between 1994 and
1996, the number of RDS radio stations in Verdland increased from 250 to 600.
However, since the number of RDS-equipped radios in Verdland was about the same
in 1996 as in 1994, the number of Verlanders receiving the special program
information probably did not increase significantly.
A.

Few if any of the RDS radio stations that began

broadcasting in Verdland after 1994 broadcast to
people with RDS-equipped radios living in areas
not previously reached by RDS stations.

B.

In 1996 most Verdlanders who lived within the

listening area of an RDS station already had a
radio equipped to receive RDS.

B. OFS: Talks about 1996; has no relationship to

the conclusion

C.

Equipping a radio station with RDS technology

does not decrease the station's listening area.

C. OFS : Range of radio station is not relevant

here.

D. In 1996 Verlanders who did not own radios

equipped to receive RDS could not receive any
programming from the RDS radio stations that
began broadcasting in Verdland after 1994.
E.

The RDS radio stations in Verdland in 1996 did not

all offer the same type of programming.

A. Correct: Ensures that the increased # of radio

stations did not improve coverage

D. OFS: The concern here is special

programming and not any programming
E. OFS: Type of programming not in scope.

Many have applied this process.

My first CAT score was 700, first test of GMATprep. I knew I had a solid quant background, so
verbal would be the tougher cookie for me. This is why I devoted my entire time to verbal. I
particularly found a very useful post (it's on the old forum - I can't find it right now) from this guy
who scored 790. He suggested starting with your weaker points: practice your weakest section
for a week or two, then start on your second weakest, but not without devoting some of your time
to the previous section. For instance, say CR is your weakest part, then second comes RC. You
practice CR exclusively for one or two weeks, then start with RC. But in the two weeks devoted
to RC, you will also "squeeze in" some CR questions, just to keep your skills fresh.
- Dana J (GMAT Score 770) excerpt from her GMAT Strategy
I looked up my previous mock test scores and realized that I needed to improve the most on my
SC, and then CR. RC needed some improvement but not as much as CR. I devoted the next 2
weeks to improve SC; read the MGMAT SC again for the first 5 days and then did the eGMAT
SC course for the remaining. Gave MGMAT mock (#3) and score 36 on verbal (12/15 SC, 8/14
CR, 8/12 RC). Was happy with my progress. Devoted the next 5 days to complete the egmat SC
course.
